The Fountain Inn - (Near , South East)

5 /5 Ryan Swan-ODiamain: Really lovely breakfast at The Fountain Inn on holiday, lovely seating outside, food tasted amazing and well cooked, really well priced. But above all I would like to thank the staff, who were really informative and gave recommendations on were to go around the island! I didnt grab any names, but pass on my regards to the two amazing staff members, female from Hounslow and the RNLI volunteer from up north! Definitely the most friendly and welcoming place in Cowes!

5 /5 andrew thompson: What a place, room was a little dated but was clean and comfortable. Food was amazing and staff could not do enough for you. Had evening meal and breakfast, both were spot on, coukd not fault and all freshly cooked. I work away alot and having a bar were the staff actually talking to you was lovely. Could not rate this hotel highly enough. Thanks for a great stay guys, eould love to come back.

5 /5 Denise Stokes: Perfect location, in sight of high speed ferry terminal. Room was clean and functional. Had a lovely evening meal then enjoyed the live entertainment in the bar. Bed was comfy and I slept well. Staff helpful and knowledgeable when we asked about local area. Would be happy to return in the future.

2 /5 Derek Jones: A group of us wanted to have an early Christmas dinner and we found the Fountain Inn, that offered what they called a "Walk-in" Christmas menu or an order and pay in advance offering. We did the "Walk in" menu. When you walk into the bar and restaurant area it looks warm and welcoming, complete with a Christmas tree, decorations and lights, all very welcoming. However deep down the bar and restaurant was grubby and dirty. The olde worldy, shabby chic look is just an excuse not to keep a place clean and tidy. The tables were all sticky and the gents toilets absolutely stunk! Reports from the ladies were the same, complete with a blocked toilet!! The service in the restaurant was passable, but not exceptional by any stretch. We booked a table for 4 for 2pm, served at 2:15, with food arriving at 3pm! For a walk in menu we waited a long, long time. When the food did arrive we found it to be dry and tasteless. The turkey was very nice, but the rest was either sitting on the pass for a long time or was a day (or two) old. Very disappointing. Maybe if we had the non walk-in menu the food may have been fresher and better. For a so called walk in menu we waited far to long and the quality was poor. The total bill for 4 people was over £110.00 for a very sub standard lunch in a rather sub standard place. Pity...

5 /5 Martyn Eyre: We have just stayed at The Fountain Inn over the Christmas period. The whole experience was Brilliant. Andy, Nicola and their Team provided brilliant service and nothing was too much trouble for them. They pampered our Dog Audrey who was also welcome to and enjoyed a lovely Christmas Dinner in the Dining Room. They offer excellent live music entertainment and there is always something going on! See you next time Andy and Nicola. Highly recommended. Martyn, Penny & Audrey.
